We saw you going north on our way back.

 

The old torque converter doesn’t like it

 

Didn't notice a change in the mileage. Seems on par.

 

"Diario de una loca trabajadora de Dana Spicer"

In Spanish because the Dana plant is likely in Mexico.

 

Got to the shop just in time to get one ordered for Monday. Going to try and source a used one for now if I can. Are rebuilt driveshafts any good?

 

Decided to replace all three bulbs with newer Amazenar bulbs.

$8 Alopee 4PCS 194 LED Bulb Red,T10 LED Bulb,168 LED Bulb, 2825 LED Bulb W5W 158 501 Error Free LED Light for Car Dome Light Tail Light DC 12V

$13 for a pack of four.



Replaced the gasket, too. Toyota's parts catalog doesn't list the gasket separately for 2nd gens. However, the 1st gen P/N 81572-04010 fits perfectly.

 

If the shop uses Toyota or OEM-equivalent Dana U-joints and carrier bearing, yep.

 

So overall, aside from somebody not following me , we did pretty good. Did a portion of the south trail, attempted to begin black loop and .
Met Jeep group from the last year that also did south trail with us.


I guess it's just me, @Ttaco15 & @Theicemedic that completed the Black Loop trail in this group this year.

On another note, @Joe23 and I had a super loud whining noise on the way back from the main trail, TuRD gen engines, too sensitive...
And if pumpkin spice latte girls ever read this - sorry not sorry, don't walk near puddles

Picture time:

 

Some luxury camping and few more pics
It was also great to meet @Canadian Joe, he taught us few things today.

 

Did he teach you not to wear white past Labor Day?

 

lol, I need winter beater in style

 

I chose not to attempt that rock ledge when we went. Glad I chickened out

 

I thought everyone would be wheeling Sunday to

 

I managed. 35’s help.....

I understood everyone was wheeling Saturday and leaving early Sunday. My plan was to stay only till Saturday. We owe ya one. Hopefully you didn’t go out of your way.

 

Looks like a good trip, minus the carnage.

If anyone is interested, don't forget the meet at Mister Steaks - Drumbo cutoff @ 401. 7:30pm.
